Objective — the study was aimed at determining the features of the histological structure of the skin at different areas of the neck. Material and methods. We collected 55 skin samples from 11 areas of the neck. The material was fixed in 10% formalin solution followed by preparation of serial sections and Van Gieson’s staining with hematoxylin and eosin. Morphometric analysis was carried out in accordance with the established principles of quantitative morphological studies using the Leica Application Suite software. The average values of quantitative characteristics and standard errors (M±m) were calculated, the reliability of differences between samples was evaluated using Student’s t-test and the corresponding reliability value (p). The differences were considered statistically significant at p<0.05. Results. Histological examination of cervical skin showed its structural features at various areas. The thickest skin layer was found on the posterior surface of the neck (due to the dermis), while the epidermis was thinner than on the anterior and lateral surfaces. The minimum skin thickness was found at the area of the submental triangle, the maximum thickness of the epidermis was found at the area of the submandibular triangle (due to the stratum corneum). Skin structure at the scapular-tracheal, scapular-clavicular, and scapular-trapezoid triangles was characterized by minimum thickness due to both epidermis and the dermis. Keratinization of the epithelium is an important characteristic in dermatology and cosmetology. The highest thickness of the stratum corneum of the epidermis was found at the area of the submandibular triangle, the minimum thickness was found at the area of the posterior surface of the neck (the median distance between and the posterior midline of the neck). Conclusion. The results of this study improve understanding of cervical skin structure and can be useful for cosmetologists, dermatologists, otorhinolaryngologists, and maxillofacial surgeons.
